Project description:Liver metastasis is one of the major causes of death in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. To understand this process, we investigated whether the gene expression profiling of matched colorectal carcinomas and liver metastases could reveal key molecular events involved in tumor progression and metastasis. We performed experiments using a cDNA microarray containing 17,104 genes with the following tissue samples: paired tissues of 25 normal colorectal mucosa, 27 primary colorectal tumors, 13 normal liver and 27 liver metastasis, and 20 primary colorectal tumors without liver metastasis. To remove the effect of normal cell contamination, we selected 4,583 organ-specific genes with a false discovery rate (FDR) of 0.0067% by comparing normal colon and liver tissues using significant analysis of microarray, and these genes were excluded from further analysis. We then identified and validated 46 liver metastasis-specific genes with an accuracy of 83.3% by comparing the expression of paired primary colorectal tumors and liver metastases using prediction analysis of microarray. The 46 selected genes contained several known oncogenes and 2 ESTs. To confirm that the results correlated with the microarray expression patterns, we performed RT-PCR with WNT5A and carbonic anhydrase II. Additionally, we observed that 21 of the 46 genes were differentially expressed (FDR = 2.27%) in primary tumors with synchronous liver metastasis compared with primary tumors without liver metastasis. We scanned the human genome using a cDNA microarray and identified 46 genes that may play an important role in the progression of liver metastasis in CRC. Keywords: gene expression profiling using cDNA microarray We performed 17K cDNA microarray with the amplified RNAs from the following tissue samples: normal colorectal mucosa, primary colorectal tumors, normal liver and liver metastasis tumors, and primary colorectal tumors without liver metastasis. Organ-specific genes in normal colon and liver tissues were excluded from the pre-filtered genes, and then we discovered and validated liver metastasis-specific genes commonly up-regulated in the primary colorectal tumors and liver metastasis tumors. To confirm the microarray data, we performed a RT-PCR of two genes (WNT5A and carbonic anhydrase II) in the primary colorectal tumors with and without liver metastases.

Project description:Eicosapentaenoic acid in its free fatty acid form (EPA-FFA), 2g daily, is safe and well-tolerated in patients undergoing liver resection surgery for colorectal liver metastasis.Oral EPA incorporates into colorectal liver metastasis tissue. EPA-FFA treatment is associated with reduced vascularity of liver metastases in Ï-3 PUFA-naïve patients. Preoperative (median 30 days) EPA-FFA treatment may have prolonged benefit on postoperative overall and disease-free survival. We used whole genome expression array to study whether systemic CCL2 level changes were linked to a specific tumour gene expression profile in colorectal liver metastasis patients treated with EPA-FFA. 15 tumour RNA samples from colorectal liver metastasis patients treated with EPA-FFA during the EMT study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01070355) were extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-wax embedded tissue blocks. The RNA samples were used for whole genome expression microarray experiments. We then performed a differential gene expression analysis to compare the tumour expression profile of patients with increased or decreased plasma CCL2 levels after intervention.

Project description:Unlike hepatocellular carcinoma, liver transplantation in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer is limited in only few centers. Previously, it was not generally implemented due to lack of organs and high recurrence rates after transplantation. However, due to progressive development in treatments, good results such as increased survival rates can be expected even in liver transplant patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer, which is known to have poor prognosis. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the efficacy of liver transplantation as an alternative treatment for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.

Project description:The prognosis for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with liver metastasis remains poor, and the molecular mechanisms driving CRC liver metastasis are still not fully understood. Hypoxia-induced extracellular vesicles (H-EVs) derived from tumors have emerged as key players in inducing angiogenesis by transferring non-coding RNAs. However, the specific role of CRC-derived hypoxic EVs (H-EVs) in regulating the formation of the pre-metastatic microenvironment (PMN) by inducing angiogenesis remains unclear. Our study demonstrates that H-EVs induce both angiogenesis and liver metastasis. Through microRNA microarray analysis, we identified a reduction in miR-6084 levels within H-EVs. We found that miR-6084 inhibits angiogenesis by being transferred to endothelial cells via EVs. In endothelial cells, miR-6084 directly targets ANGPTL4 mRNA, thereby suppressing angiogenesis through ANGPTL4-mediated JAK2/STAT3 pathway. Furthermore, we uncovered that SP1 acts as a transcription factor regulating miR-6084 transcription, while HIF1A decreases miR-6084 expression by promoting SP1 protein dephosphorylation and facilitating ubiquitin‒proteasome degradation in SW620 cells. In clinical samples, we observed low expression of miR-6084 in plasma-derived EVs from CRC patients with liver metastasis. In summary, our findings suggest that CRC-derived hypoxic EVs promote angiogenesis and liver metastasis through the HIF1A/SP1/miR-6084/ANGPTL4 axis. Additionally, miR-6084 holds promise as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for CRC liver metastasis.

Project description:The purpose of this study is to identify miRNAs involved in the pathology of colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastasis and investigate their underlying mechanisms. A total of 39 miRNAs were identified to be differentially expressed between 16 primary CRC tissues with liver metastases and 16 CRC tissues without liver metastases from 32 patients by Affymetric miRNA microarrays. 16 coloretcal cancer tissues with liver metastasis and 16 colorectal cancer tissues without liver metastasis were included in this study for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to identify the differentially expressed miRNAs between colorectal cancer tissues with and without liver metastasis.

Project description:We determined whether collagen is upregulated in colorectal liver metastasis tissue (CRLM). We previously showed that naturally occurring peptides of collagen type I were elevated in the urine of patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). CRLM tissue was compared to healthy adjacent liver tissue (controls) using high resolution mass spectrometry. Twenty-two different collagen alpha chains were identified, 19 of which were significantly upregulated (P<0.05) in CRLM tissue compared with control tissue. We observed expression of four collagen alpha chains which were absent or low expressed in healthy colon and control tissue, but were highly present in CRC and CRLM tissues analyzed. This expression pattern was also observed for six non-collagen colon specific proteins. Two of these proteins (CDH17 and PPP1R1B/DARP-32) were not known to be differently expressed in CRLM in comparison to healthy liver tissue. Furthermore, 16 of 20 identified proteins related to collagen synthesis were upregulated, indicating increased synthesis of collagen in CRLM. Cross-validation of the mass spectrometry data with immunohistochemistry for collagen type XII confirmed the significant upregulation of collagen type XII in CRLM. This study shows that the majority of collagen types are upregulated in CRLM compared to control tissue most likely as a result of an increased collagen turnover and changes in the collagen supramolecular structure. This research provides further understanding of morphologic changes in extracellular matrix of CRLM and the finding of proteins and peptides that might be specific for tumor metastasis in liquid biopsies.
